Alekos Fassianos (Шаблон:Lang-el, 13 December 1935 – 16 January 2022) was a renowned Greek painter. He gained recognition for his distinctive style, which was characterized by immediacy and a deliberate departure from standardized painting techniques.

Life and career

Fassianos was born in Athens but originated from Nafpaktos. After graduating from the Athens School of Fine Arts, he moved to Paris, France, in 1960, to study lithography at the Paris National School of Arts, where he met several artists and writers.Шаблон:Citation needed

Fassianos used to design the stage decorations for major classic and modern productions. His art has been exhibited in museums and galleries including in Athens, Paris, and throughout Europe, as well as in Tokyo, New York, São Paulo, and Melbourne.Шаблон:Citation needed

In addition to private collections, his art works can be found in the following museums in France; the Paris Museum of Modern Art; the Maeght Foundation, San Paul de Vence;l, and the Center for Contemporary Art.Шаблон:Citation needed

Fassianos was very popular in Greece, and some of his works are exhibited in public places: two large murals entitled The Myth of My Neighborhood, can be seen in Athens at the Metaxourgeio metro station. Small sculptures can be seen in front of the Orthodox Church of St. Irene in Athens. A giant vertical mural can be seen in the lobby of the Electra Metropolis Hotel in Athens.

On 13 December 2007, a Fassianos painting titled The Messenger sold for €550,701 at Bonhams in London.

Fassianos died on 16 January 2022, at the age of 86.
